"I am calm. They speak every time, Jamie and him, who wants to shoot the penalty. That is fine.

"I say nothing (to Mahrez), I say continue because you will get another chance, you will create another chance. Only the man who works can make mistakes, it can happen. In the dressing room I said 'don't worry'."

And Ranieri hinted he will rest some players for the club's next league match, a trip to White Hart Lane to face Tottenham.

"I said in a press conference before that when it is the right moment I will rest them. Yes, maybe now in the next match against Tottenham I will change some players, because every time I always say I have a very good squad," said Ranieri.

"When I speak about the squad I mean all the players and now the others deserve to play."
